Microsoft office has been able to open odt files since 2010.
Furthermore, LibreOffice does not always create/save files 100% compatible with MSO. I used to use Libre office because free. Word documents I have created/edited in LibreOffice were always a little broken layout wise when the document is opened in Word.
Whether it is because LibreOffice does a shitty job converting to docx when saving, Microsoft added in some anti competitor shit in Word or that the docx standard is vague is a discussion for another time.
that’s interesting to learn. cool of them to implement it despite there not (directly) being anything in it for them.
